This cook-top scramble doesn't take a lot of culinary expertise or presentation efforts. It's all about getting some quality food cooked in an efficient manner. Beginning to end, this dish takes about 30 minutes to prepare.
Three simple ingredients form the base: eggs, fingerling potatoes and Swiss chard. Swiss chard's leaves are rich in vitamins A, K and C. Fingerling potatoes contain carotenoids, flavonoids, and caffeic acid, as well as unique tuber storage proteins, such as patatin, which exhibit activity against free radicals. They're also a good source of vitamins B6, C, copper, potassium, manganese and dietary fiber. And eggs, of course, are a great source of protein.
